Can't decide what to watch on TV? How about settling the dispute with a good old fashioned round of Paper Scissors Lizard Spock ? Given your opponents choice and a strategy ("win", "lose", or "tie"), return a string representing the choice(s) that would yield that desired outcome.

Ex:

rpsls("rock","lose")

ans = {"Spock", "paper"} %%you will lose if you choose either Spock or paper

rpsls("paper", "tie")

ans = "paper" %%you will tie if you select the same choice
